Great to encounter this site ! I am a current BA Cabin Service Director in Europe 737/757/A319?A320. Joined BOAC in early'72 and started my flying with a 707/VC10 licence. Always loved the VC10, the Super was always so elegant, but from a cabin crew point of view the rest area at Door 2 left on the Standard was the best in flight feature! The panoramic view from the cockpit has only ever been beaten by the TriStar.

I was a member of the Junior Jet Club in the late sixties and early seventies. My parents worked in Zambia so we flew the regular route to Lusaka stopping off in Entebbe. I can clearly remember G-ARVL from the log and also numerous visits to the flight decks. Sleeping on the floor behind a row of seats and the little plastic salt pots are other things I remember. Now, I live a few miles from Duxford and get to climb on G-ASGC about four times a year, marvellous.......
